tahrikmili Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 A lot of people have these old metal Death Company figures lying about, and I thought you might want to see how they look with Bolters.. Obviously WIP :) I didn't have any special shoulderpads for these guys, so I'll just freehand red crossed lines instead. I'm considering Red Cross on right shoulder and red Blood Angels amblem on left shoulder, how would that look?

lunchb0x Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I use the old metal ones as my Sgts. in my tac squads or special weapon guys.

Zeller Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I like this. May consider this for my pewter DC. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211506-ye-olde-death-company-with-shiny-happy-bolters/#findComment-2516234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 And there was me thinking you meant the olde olde DC models... I only bought one of those guys and he was turned into a SB/Twin LC captain... Already had 25 of the really old ones.

igotsmeakabob!! Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I think the 'old' Death Co. models make excellent marines or veterans now. A spray of red and they look like veterans or well-decorated battle-brothers.

tahrikmili Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Some progress.. Slow, but they are coming along. I tried highlighting the black armor with blue today and it looked like ass, so I painted over it with black and I'll go back to using gray I think.. But what could I have done wrong?..

tahrikmili Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 More (slooow) progress.. Painting the shoulderpad X's was a bitch, I sort of messed up the first one (rightmost) but got a hang of it later on..

tahrikmili Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Work is coming along, all the reds are in place (need some highlights on them still) and I'm working on the black highlights.. Next up is finishing the reds, the bones, lenses and metallics (which are fairly easy and straightforward really).. I know the highlights look a tad too sharp but that's mostly due to a white desk lamp, they look much more normal with natural lighting.. EDIT: Added the fourth marine..
